00:00I know you're going to talk about these international games, Mike, and I know, uh, I'm hearing that

00:08Ireland will happen and that, uh, the Roonies and the Steelers will be one of the teams

00:13playing, uh, that game.

00:15Oh, there's no doubt about it.

00:16And Goodell said that yesterday from Germany that, uh, I mean, he kind of made it sound

00:21like it was like 95% that it would, they were going to have an Ireland game.

00:25But one thing that is a hundred percent is that if they do, the Steelers will be in the

00:31Ireland game, uh, with the Rooney family and their history and what they want to do.

00:35Uh, so they say the AFC teams have the extra home game next year.

00:39I would think that you're going to see, you know, everyone's, my family has been a million

00:46times.

00:47They're from there.

00:48Everybody's from Ireland.

00:50I've never gone.

00:51They don't want me there.

00:52Well, and look, you never know.

00:54Maybe it'll be, and I don't think they would do this cause they usually don't put very

00:57marquee games in Ireland.

00:59But if we ever got Bill Steelers, uh, as the game in Ireland, you know, that would just

01:04be, and that Aviva, which is where they would play at the Aviva stadium, which is where

01:09the Irish national team plays.

01:11And they played the Irish Notre Dame games, uh, and the other college games in the preseason.

01:16Uh, it's a scene, uh, at that place.

01:18So it'd be a lot of fun.

01:19And I hope the NFL does go there.

01:21Now some of these other places I could probably do without, and I'm sure everyone else says

01:25that about Ireland.

01:26Why the hell are they going to play in Ireland?

01:27Well, you know what I say?

01:28Why the hell do we got to play in Spain and Brazil and Mexico city, uh, again, uh, next

01:33year.

01:34But they're going to go and do that.

01:35Germany, London, uh, eight international games in 2025, uh, which is what having home games

01:42in the NFL before, you know, it, well, listen, we we've said this for years.

01:46This is all part of their plan.

01:48They are trying to play.

01:50I saw someone say they want to try to make it so that there's 16 international games

01:55a year.

01:56And every team has to play one international game every year.

01:59That is their goal.

02:00I go forward.

02:01It concerns me is, is that like, I, you know, I'm a season ticket holder of the Steelers

02:05and it costs a lot of money and you know, you get eight or nine games and then you can

02:11slice one of those right off the list and you're paying all this money for these games.

02:16And I mean, they go up every year, the tickets, they go up every single year.

02:20I've never once not seen the price go up.

02:22And then what you're taking games away from us and giving them to Europe.

02:26I mean, who has the time or the money, honestly, to go to Europe for a Sunday morning, nine

02:3230 kick in the States.

02:34I mean, and then what you get on a plane and come back and go to work.

02:38Like if you're going to go, you got to turn it into a vacation, right?

02:42You got to just stay there for a few days and not come home, but right after the game

02:47and you got to pay through the nose for season tickets in the NFL in America and yet you're

02:51not getting to go to games.

02:55Yeah, I'm sure they don't charge you any less because they take one of those home games

02:58away. You're still as you're still paying the same bill, no matter what games this year.

03:04And I'm paying the same.

03:06I'm paying more than I did last year, as if I had nine last year.

03:11The price still went up and I got one last game.

03:13Now you're going to take another one away from me.

03:15Yeah, that's what that's.

03:17Well, next year they they technically have nine.

03:20So you're going to get eight, but they're going to charge you for nine, which is how it

03:24always works. It's amazing how it goes.

03:27But I would almost bet your bottom dollar the Steelers will be in Dublin at the Aviva in

03:322025 to go and play there.
